How these two moments in the story relate
Why These Connect

Why This Matters Across Episodes
The longer arc this connection carries
Biroc’s mirror-based intervention in Episode 20 directly builds on the Doctor’s earlier understanding of the mirror’s temporal properties, creating a callback that reinforces the mirror’s centrality to the plot.
